You’ve seen my technique in person. No hands would be a real stretch for me on a good day on a good bike.
My hands get numb quickly, and my triceps complain in about an hour. I move carefully from flats to tops to drops and if I take one hand off, it’s quick. I guess I get an arm workout, too.
I definitely have to keep my head straight. I’m moving the TV to dead center, just above the fan. My immediate goal is to drink from the water bottle. This is good core stuff.
By the way, Gail rides her Kickr at the same time. She’s terrified it will all unwind at once.
